I have been here twice while in town and I get their chai tea. It was hot but not so hot you couldn't drink it. It was creamy and I ordered mine with soy milk. Currently there is no Starbucks in town but I see they are building one right down the road. I mentioned this only because I am partial to the Starbucks Chai Tea which I also purchase at Costco for home use. But Cravings comes as closets you can get so I really appreciate the flavor of their chai tea. They also have fast and friendly drive through service. Next day my husband did a coffee/tea run and picked up some bakery items. We stay at the Mead Hotel every 3 months for quarterly meetings so this place has been one of our staple places to run to as it is only about 1 mile away on the main drag. One good thing about being able to review the same place multiple times is you get to sample more of their product for a wider range of reviews. This morning my chai teas was not as creamy as yesterday but it was still tasty. My husband likes strong coffee black. He had their dark roast and said it was ok. He said in all honesty the free hotel Coffee was better. I'm not a coffee drinker but I know my husband is fussy. We picked up two scones -chocolate chip and blueberry and they were served warm. The scones were fresh and not dry as some scones can be. They were tasty with a hint of sweetness. We also picked up two giant cookies - one chocolate chip and one white chocolate macadamia nut. The chocolate chip was chewy soft but the macadamia nut was very hard which suggests to me it may have been sitting around for a while. Both cookies were ok, nothing that would wow me. We always get friendly service thru the drive through. read more

See all

Cute place, good selection and pricing. My main complaint is that each time I have went in or used the drive through, something is always wrong with my order.. I frequent on Sundays when its a little bit 'slower', but somehow my order always ends up wrong! (I order off the menu with no special 'twists', so these are standard drinks Im talking about here!) I so want to love this place- but I just cant with the continual errors being made. .. Please work on being accurate Baristas- It matters..... in repeat customers and tips! read more

I've lived in Rapids for 2.5 years and have never gone inside the shop to order, but I go through the drive-thru at least once a week and have fantastic service every time. Even when they're so busy the line of cars is out to the street, the baristas are pleasant and friendly. The coffee and chai are always delicious, and Cravings keeps the coffee menu interesting with a constant rotation of seasonal and holiday flavors. This is my favorite drive-thru coffee spot in Rapids, hands down. read more

This is a pleasant coffee shop that was a short walk from my hotel. Service was quick and the coffee and blueberry muffin were delicious.

Nice little shop with nice workers! Came here with my friend and it's a nice place to hang out and talk I definitely recommend and they have options for what you would like including holiday options!!! Not to mention the prices are nice too! Love this place and I will be back! read more

absolutely the best coffee shop around. even better than starbucks and that says a lot considering starbucks is usually my go-to for coffee. everything about this place is perfect from the merchandise and food, to the customer service, to the cozy atmosphere. i always visit whenever im in town. i hope this business continues to grow! read more

Great service at drive-thru. Very personable staff, great hours. Specials every day. Cookies, bagels, hot oatmeal with fruit also available. Iced coffee, lattes, specialty coffee drinks just like Starbucks but not an arm and a leg for prices. read more

I'm going to start by saying the place is cute and welcoming. Staff is fast and friendly. I ordered skim latte no flavor. I don't love it. Actually I'm not sure l finish it. It has a smokey flavor I'm not in love with. Its my personal taste. The strength of the latte is good. I'm just not loving the flavor of their beans. read more

Great coffee and nice sitting area. Employees are always so sweet and they give my pup a treat every time

This place is great. Modern decor, good coffee, free WiFi, reasonable prices. So much better than the coffee place in downtown Wisconsin Rapids. read more

Im very disappointed with this coffee shop. Brought two packages of one lb. Flavored coffee. First bag , was very good , nice flavor. The second bag not so good. The coffee was not ground, whole bean. No information on package stating the contents was a whole bean coffee. Called and talked to the Manager. I was told that they do not have a coffee grinder, so they could not do that for me. Also they could not exchange the bag for one that was ground. The Manager was rather snippeity with me. Asked if the bag was opened. Well yes , that's how i found out that it was a whole bean coffee. Ill not go there anymore. read more

Not very friendly. I was reading off my order and she said just give me the list which I did. Came back with wrong order and one coffee short. I just left. Didn't want to hold up line. Smile would have helped read more

The coffee is terrible. I mean, truly wretched. It is old and stale, preground, over-roasted, cheap coffee. The staff is incompetent when it comes to preparing coffee. Their shots are some of the worst pulled espresso I have ever seen, they don't purge the grouphead or clean the portafilter or espresso hopper, so you know you're getting lots of old, rancid coffee oils. For iced drinks or frappes, they don't use fresh shots, but instead use old, expired, stale shots they store in the fridge. The same goes for iced coffee - it's just cooled down coffee that sat around all day that they couldn't sell. They use too much syrup, so their drinks are way too sweet. And they don't know how to steam milk properly, so it is foamy and scalded. read more

Chai tea latte is very good. I haven't eaten any food there but the drinks are always good.

The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. When there is a wait at the drive thru they will walk outside to take your order. The coffee is excellent and I look forward to getting it whenever I am in the area. I had to work nights for awhile and I lived on their coffee! read more

Great selection of specialty coffee. The sandwich I ordered was really good. Nice coffee house atmosphere. Kind of surprising.

While the drinks are acceptable yet overpriced, I find the atmosphere more like an impersonal waiting room than a welcoming area to enjoy company. The staff seemed impersonal and distracted as well, as if my presence was a bother despite the shop being almost completely empty at the time. This is a pity as it is closer than other coffee shops, but I will walk down all the way across the river to another shop if it means my business is appreciated. read more

The hot chocolate is unreal. The cute blonde girl that served it to me is even better.

I go here as often as possible. Love the coffee and so happy it's right across the street from where I work. I do think they should add ice cream...especially during the summer months. read more

Is it a house? No, it's a fire coffee house. Tons of drink items. Drive thru is efficient. Small lunch menu but awesome selections. Fresh bakery items. Yeah, just really good. read more

I love going here and they always have great coffee and tons of options. The staff is friendly and helpful, too. They also sell wine and some other goodies. Unfortunately they've stopped selling ice cream. read more

I have always enjoyed this local coffee shop until today. For Valentine's Day (one-week today to date) my husband purchased a Corkcicle Cup as a gift. A few days ago, I noticed a spot on the top rim. At first, I thought it was from not hand-washing it well enough but it kept coming back - it is rust. I took the cup back into the store today and the lady at the counter was very confused on how to handle the situation, kept telling me that Corkcicle is not going to refund her - she asked me "what am I going to do with the cup", I replied "I don't know". She directed me to the Corkcicle website for warranty's assuring me they would handle it (great assurance since she was unsure that they would help her). I think that the store should have replaced this $30+ cup that is just a week old, clearly defective and taken it up with the company. Very disappointed - I left feeling like I did something wrong.. I won't by anymore merchandise at the shop ever again. :( Now onto Corkcicle. read more

I Love this place. So glad I found it. The coffee is so exceptional....I wish I could make it like this. I will be a daily customer. Can't wait to try the soup. read more

Drove by this place many times and finally stopped. I should've stopped the first time I drove past. It's a cute little coffe shop with sandwiches and soup (soup is seasonal).

Love this place! It's so nice to have a small business serving such quality items in our small town! Hubs and I are always satisfied when we stop here. It's always hopping and the staff is smiley and nice. :) keep up the great work! read more

I've been to this quaint coffee shop twice. Both times the customer service was lacking. They do not have gluten free options which is fine. However, when asked about if there is gluten in things or if they have gluten free options the staff are rude about it. The rudeness & lack of offering to even check if there is gluten in an item is the issue. read more

Yay! Soymilk is back on the menu at this gem of a coffee shop! Now it's the best place for coffee, espresso drinks, smoothies and more in a 25 mile radius. Great wine selection and great lunch menu as well. Really friendly staff who know their stuff. We are lucky to have this place in our neck of the woods! read more

WOW! All I can say is WOW! Went to Cravings after coming to the realization Wis Rapids doesn't have a Starbucks. The next best thing, which turned out to be 10 times better than Starbucks, was Cravings! Such a cute, modern themed coffee shop with EXCELLENT coffee drinks. Try the Snickerdoodle, my all time favorite!! The staff is so kind and personalizes each order which I love. On a first name basis with all of them, and they always ask about my day which never fails to bring a smile to my face. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for BY FAR the BEST coffee drinks in Central Wisconsin. read more
